Failure isn’t the opposite of success - it’s part of the process. Every mistake teaches you something! 💡
Join us for our “What is Medicine?” Webinar on Friday 8th May! Find out all about the working as a doctor is really like and the journey to getting there! 🩺👩⚕️👨⚕️ events.teams.microsoft.com/event/accc6a24…
A short guide on Years 1-2 of medical school 📚🧠 covering what to expect, how to revise effectively, manage your time, and look after your wellbeing 🤗
This is your chance to demonstrate leadership beyond your title. Highlight how you identified a challenge, took initiative, strengthened communication or workflow, and introduced a change that led to an improvement. Focus on your thought process, the actions you implemented 🩺
EVENT 🚨 Join us for a webinar titled “When things don’t go to plan - bouncing back and alternative routes to medicine” Here, we will be sharing information on what to do if your application/interview is unsuccessful. To find out more, attend the webinar on Tuesday 10/03 at 7pm
This station tests your understanding of autonomy, capacity, consent, and ethical decision-making. Stay calm, show empathy, assess capacity, and prioritise patient-centred care 🤔💭
A very important quote from Eric Dane (Mark Sloan) which reminds us that technical skill means nothing without humanity. Every patient interaction carries weight. We should always leave someone feeling heard, valued and cared for.
Here are a few tips on how you might structure your answer, reflect on your experiences, and demonstrate insight into the realities of the profession - while avoiding cliché responses.
Being a good doctor isn’t about keeping someone alive - sometimes it’s about the little details that matter most to patients. What is essential is respecting autonomy, maintaining comfort and ensuring dignity is upheld throughout
Future doctor? 👀🩺 Find out what medicine is really like at our “What is Medicine” workshop. 📍 2 Feb – Coleg Sir Gar (14:30) 📍 4 Feb – Gower College Gorseinon (15:00) More sessions coming soon… watch this space.
But what does this mean? 🤔 In medicine, it reminds us that care isn’t just about diagnoses or prescriptions. Patients may not remember every word you say, but they will remember the kindness, and respect you showed. How you make someone feel can leave a lasting impact
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from WAMMS 🎄✨ We’re logging out until the New Year - enjoy a well-deserved break and get ready for a busy year ahead of WAMMS, medicine applications, and interviews 🩺✨
What a term! 💙 700+ student engagements, 200+ mock MMIs across Wales, and countless hours of mentoring from our amazing Cardiff Med student volunteers. So proud of what WAMMS has achieved this year. Best of luck to everyone applying to Medicine! 🌟🩺
What does this really mean? 🤔 It means patients remember how we made them feel heard, supported. They don’t need superhuman answers - they just need us to be there, to listen and to take them seriously. Presence ends up being the thing that changes the experience the most 💭🩺
This week’s Welsh Wednesday is all about the variety of medical specialties! From cardiology to Obs&Gynae, paediatrics to geriatrics, each specialty plays a vital role in delivering safe and effective care to patients. There are PLENTY of specialties to choose from…🫀🫁🧠🦴
